Nicole Atkins – “Girl You Look Amazing”

Hey guys, it's Mags. Today and tomorrow I'm sharing an artist each that I heard for the first time at SXSW. Today is Nicole Atkins. She went on at like 6:30 in the morning on Thursday before The Hold Steady. My friend and I agreed Nicole was our favorite artist of the morning.

"Girl You Look Amazing" starts around 7:15, which she played on Thursday and was in my head most of the rest of the day.

Kaizer’s Orchestra – Knekker Deg Til Sist

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYrPdOCM4y0

Okay, back to music videos 🙂

A few years ago I participated in a Battle of the Bands featuring mostly bands that never hit the Billboard 200.  This was by far the best song to come out of that contest.  Yes, it's in Norwegian, and I can't understand it, but by golly, I couldn't get enough of it.  With a fair number of us from Minnesota, and maybe a few Norweigans in the bunch, maybe someone else will connect with it like I did.

Jon Gomm – Passionflower

So apparently, I didn't realize they were supposed to be live videos.  Oh well, I like going against the norm 🙂  But here's a live video that I planned to share anyway.  When I first listened to the song, I didn't think it was too spectacular.  Then I saw the video and was really amazed at how he does this song.  Check it out!

Bastille – Pompeii

There was no "Somebody That I Used to Know" that jumped out at me this past year, and something off TMBG's "Nanobots" was too obvious. So, I'll throw this one out here. If you haven't heard it too much that it's already become an earworm, then you might enjoy it like I do.

From Bastille's 2013 "Bad Blood" CD:
